PSA: Wii U GameCube adapter only compatible with Super Smash Bros.
Reports issued yesterday indicated that the adapter would be compatible with a broad selection of Wii and Wii U games, allowing players to use GameCube controllers in titles featuring Classic Controller support. Nintendo disclosed its mistake in a statement to Eurogamer earlier today, emphasizing that the peripheral is exclusively designed for the upcoming Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.
"The GameCube Controller Adapter for Wii U is compatible with Wii U and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U specifically - it is not compatible with any other Wii U software," a Nintendo UK spokesperson told Eurogamer. "The adapter is also not compatible with Wii and we apologise for any confusion."

I'm sure that the controller adapter will work with future games for those who decide to support it.

I would use that in a heartbeat. I used to no life Melee, so I got used to the GameCube controller. When Brawl came out and I started trying the Wii remote with it, it was just a nightmare, come to find out, I was able to plug in the GameCube controller and I used the controller on that game, so when I buy the Wii U, I will be buying this so I can use my GameCube controller that is still in my garage.

I might look into this a bit more and purchase these things. I wouldn't mind playing some super smash mobs with my sister, she loves the game.

Nice work Nintendo, you should team up with EA sometimes I'm pretty sure you could make something 'revolutionary' and way overpriced

TreyarchedJRMH Super Smash Bros is the only game worth getting on the Wii or Wii U, in my opinion.
If only it wasn't an exclusive. :
you can play SSB on a wii emulator which works great even online, just need a fast intel CPU overclocked to 4.*GHz
true i play emulators all the time computers rock ^_^
